Plenty of seats still available!

Ya, ticetmaster showing some sections are still only half sold. and the team is being jerks about people buying and re-selling.

The Oilers can't sell their inventory as it is. Customers become competition very quickly.

So the sell out streak is over? icon_rolleyes

You know you've screwed up pretty bad as an organization when you can't sell out your building in a hockey mad city like Edmonton with one of the best players in the history of the game in his prime with another guy who will go down as one of the best Europeans ever riding shotgun.

Meh

Seems everything since covid has changed. Hard to sell out any games. Whether that’s NFL, NBA, baseball. Anything.

Covid is nothing more than an excuse. These problems were evident as soon as the initial buzz of the new arena wore off. Covid does not factor into the cost value equation.

well I disagree. Lots of people are less well off, since Covid financially, for one reason or another. Affordability and inflation are way up since covid messed up supply chains world wide, and there other influences beyond covid too that are driving prices of everything up, and nice things to have like going to oilers games occasionally just gets dropped for those that were borderline able to afford it in the first place.
Sure there is other reasons, but its not only related to Oilers, numbers are down in most leagues.

Oh o agree. I just think people have gotten lazy since covid. People just don’t seem to want to go out near as much anymore especially later type games

I know me and my wife are hurting a bit since covid. She lost her 70 grand a year job. She’s now with RCMP and making good money but we lost out on two years of pay and went about 10 grand in the hole so we haven’t been able to do as much as we like. Covid has definitely screwed things up, but over all I agree. People can afford it. Just seems people are lazy more now

Saskatchewan Roughrider games never had trouble selling out. Now we can’t even fill half the stadium. Labour day was a stretch to sell out. Times have changed. It’s sad. Seems it’s hard to even fill half an area

I am one of the lazy. I went from a social butterfly to a man very comfortable with my own company and the couch during the evening. That being said I have made the trip 3 times to watch a game this year and will likely end up going to 10+. If you are willing to wait untl the last hour before puck drop on TM Verified Ticket Resale, you can regularly get lower bowl seats for under a $100 and never more than $120. There are tons of good seats for every game, regardless of the opponent (Toronto/Montreal excluded). I keep planning my work trips around the NHL schedule for a reason, haha.

And thank you for the PL seats tip. They are still in the $30-40 range. I have just heard horror stories of the 90 degree stairs and obstructed views, but from no one who I have known to actually go to a game.
